From March 2017: "Wikileaks to prove CIA is behind Fake News Russia story if corrupt investigation doesn't admit it" #Vault7 #ObamaGate

Is this why #Assange is being brought to the US? Wikileaks Founder Ready to Provide Evidence Russian Collusion is False

From 2017: WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has offered to provide evidence that the Russian collusion narrative is false in exchange for a pardon from President Trump.

Also from 2017: California’s Dana Rohrabacher asks for pardon of Julian Assange in return for evidence Russia wasn’t source of hacked emails.

#Vault7 will prove that the CIA planted fake evidence to make it look like Russia hacked the DNC server. #ObamaGate #RussiaGate https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/#PRESS

From the Wikileaks "Year Zero" dump: With UMBRAGE the CIA can misdirect attribution by leaving behind the "fingerprints" The "digital fingerprints" they claim were left behind by Russian hackers will be proven by #Assange to have been implanted by the CIA

#Assange is coming here to prove the CIA fabricated this: “The CIA has identified Russian officials who fed material hacked from the Democratic National Committee and party leaders to WikiLeaks"

The "Russian fingerprints" were the pretext for spying on Trump.

This will open the door for proving #ObamaGate The Obama-connected wiretapping and illegal leaks of classified material concerning President Trump and General Flynn are a scandal,”

Update to below:

It appears that this story has triggered the isolation of key information points on the web to prevent it from going viral. Additionally some of the re-posts of this people copied from here and put elsewhere used the earliest version that is not worded as well or as completely (and has a less clear Michelle watching it burn photo, my error, I accidentally downscaled it) so you might want to put it back up again with the final write that is now posted.

BLOCKBUSTER: PROVEN: Michelle Obama and other global elite burned Notre Dame Cathedral, and celebrated

This is going to be the top posted report for several days, and it will not drift down the page. If you link this, it will be what people see on top.

To get this all started: I had heard of Michelle Obama's dinner cruise coinciding with the burning of the cathedral, but was not certain it would be possible to pin it down on her. As it turns out, it was possible to. Other people had already posted on this topic, but the work was done in a way that could be questioned as to how legit it was. So I set out to see if there was a way to actually pin it down, and there was a way. There is no doubt the elite New World Order crowd burned Notre Dame and celebrated, I have this sewn up in a body bag. Let's get started.

First of all, let's briefly cite the official story on Michelle Obama's cruise, and then let's put things in actual order and show what really happened. Here's the official story:

"Michelle Obama was spotted on an idyllic dinner cruise in Paris on Monday night when she and the other guests learned that the nearby Notre Dame Cathedral had gone up in flames

The mood of passengers changed when news of the fire at Notre Dame filtered through. At one point during the cruise, Mrs Obama stared intently at a fellow passenger's phone

OK, SO NOW I AM GOING TO SHOW YOU WHAT REALLY HAPPENED, AND IT IS ALL RECORDED IN THE WINE GLASSES. THIS IS NOT DEPENDENT ON THE "QUESTIONABLE"(not questionable really) MICHELLE OBAMA WINE GLASS PHOTO YOU MIGHT HAVE ALREADY SEEN, instead, it shows how people on the boat were reacting and socializing when they knew the cathedral was burning.

The cruise departed AFTER the cathedral was already hurling smoke into the sky. This is proven by the reflections in the wine glass in this photo which shows a rather happy Michelle Obama. You can't see the actual cathedral in this photo yet because the dinner cruise is not close enough yet but they are all happy and they definitely know it is burning.

The Elites Laugh As Americans Revel In Their Enslavement While Fearing Each Other

Americans are increasingly living in fear of the opposing political party. While the elites laugh and continue to enslave the populace even further because of this fear, Americans increasingly embrace their chains while asking them to be shortened, and all while dehumanizing those on a different plantation.

The fact is, none of us are free. We are all slaves to the same master – the political elites. The only way to be free is to accept it and attempt to free others in the process. So far, the government has not had to put literal chains on anyone because most Americans are mental slaves. If you own the mind, you won’t need to enslave the body. This is causing problems in problems in our society, however, as many fear those who think differently than they do while giving a pass to the ones actually at fault for their dissatisfaction.

Extreme partisanship has infected both democrats and republicans to the point of no return. According to Oregon Live, more than 40 percent of Americans say they are surrounded by “downright evil” and they’re referring to their fellow Americans who happen to belong to a different political party. This division and fear keep the elite wealthy, powerful, and increasingly authoritarian. While we fight each other, we can’t be bothered to actually take on the behemoth monster that is responsible for all this fear and division in the first place.

A recent academic paper by political scientists Nathan P. Kalmoe and Lilliana Mason, presented at the National Capital Area Political Science Association conference in January, concludes that the extreme partisanship of recent decades has made millions of Americans intellectually insular and emotionally numb. As a result, these hyper-partisans – and, to be clear, all of this goes for members of both major parties – feel little or no sympathy “in response to deaths and injuries of political opponents.” Some even show “explicit support for partisan violence.” –Oregon Live

Pages 111 to 120: Mueller Report Summary

In one sentence: This section is mostly about how Trump Jr. was contacted by muh Russians to meet and learn about some negative information pertaining to HRC.

Broken down:

Agalarov, Russian real-estate developer w/ties to Putin was connected to DJT and “worked w/Trump in connection w/the 2013 Miss Universe pageant in Moscow and a potential Trump Moscow real-estate project”. (p. 110-111)

Agalarov used an intermediary to communicate w/DJT once GEOTUS was campaigning for the presidency —> Goldstone

Through Goldstone, Agalorov expressed interest in supporting him through “important friends and colleagues, especially with reference to US/Russian relations”. (p. 111)

This support also included info “that might interest the Trumps involved Hillary Clinton” (p. 111).

Natalia Veselnitskaya (“V”) was brought into the picture in reference to some of the info (some redacted). (Top of p. 112)

Her lobbying & testimony RE Magnitsky Act, Putin’s distaste for the outcome of it “purely political, unfriendly act”, & the sanctions, travel restrictions on Russian officials, halted adoption of Russian children by US citizens are referenced.

V’s legal work included defense of Katsyv, “a civil-forfeiture action alleging the laundering of proceeds from the fraud exposed by Magnitsky”. (p. 112)

Goldstone reached out to Trump Jr on Agalarov’s behalf to ask to meet w/offer to Trump campaign w/“some official docs and info that wld incriminate HRC and her dealing w/Russia”. (P. 113)

Trump Jr agreed to meet. GEOTUS reported not to have known about it.

Trump Jr, Kushner, Manafort met w/the group incl. Vaselnitskaya.

In a lunch preparing for the meeting at Trump Tower several participants reported that “Vaselnitskaya showed Akhmetshin a document alleging financial misconduct by Bill Browder and the Ziff brothers (Americans w/business in Russia), and those individuals subsequently making political donations to the DNC.” (p. 117)

During the meeting at Trump Tower, Trump Jr asked V how payments cld be tied specifically to Clinton Campaign, and V said she couldn’t trace money once it entered the US. (p. 118)

During the meeting, Kushner sent iMessage to Manafort stating “waste of time” & sent 2 emails to assistants w/requests that they call him to get him out of the meeting & he left.

When V was interviewed by the press she denied reason for meeting, & had not “referred to any derogatory info concerning the == Clinton Campaign ==

when she met with Trump Campaign officials”. (p. 119)

Attempts were made by Goldstone to arrange more meetings. Kaveladze reported to Agalarov that the meeting “about the Magnitsky Act had been a waste of time because it was not with lawyers and they were ‘preaching to the wrong crowd’”. V was present at the time of this reporting. (p. 120)

The press got wind of the meeting, Goldstone was apologetic to Agalorov as the “relationship with ‘mr T has been thrown down the drain’”.

Grand Jury redactions are present throughout this section.

Notable: How Trump’s Attorneys General are transforming U.S. immigration law

How Trump’s Attorneys General are transforming U.S. immigration law

Under U.S. President Donald Trump, the attorney general’s office has reshaped immigration law at an unprecedented rate. Unlike the federal judiciary system, U.S. immigration courts fall under the Justice Department’s jurisdiction, and the attorney general can intervene in cases to set national legal precedent. Former Attorney General Jeff Sessions and his successors have been unusually active in this practice compared to their predecessors, a Reuters analysis of Justice Department data shows. The data describe an unprecedented effort by the Justice Department to quietly advance policy goals and transform immigration law from the top down.

In one case, Sessions overturned a grant of asylum to a victim of domestic violence from El Salvador. He wrote in his ruling in the case, known as Matter of A-B-, that most gang and domestic violence victims will not qualify for asylum under his narrowed definition. That decision, however, was struck down by a U.S. federal judge. In four other cases in 2018, Sessions issued decisions restricting the discretion of immigration judges to put off final deportation hearings by continuing, closing or dismissing proceedings. After stepping in as acting attorney general in November, Matthew Whitaker continued in Sessions’ footsteps and singled out three immigration cases for review.

One case, known as the Matter of L-E-A-, concerns whether a man who fled a kidnapping attempt by cartels in Mexico qualifies for asylum. Another case, known as the Matter of Castillo-Perez, questions whether convictions for driving under the influence should disqualify immigrants from certain legal protections to remain in the country. Newly appointed Attorney General William Barr, who replaced Sessions, is also following his predecessors’ path with a decision on Tuesday that revoked the right of some asylum seekers to ask for bond in front of an immigration judge, expanding indefinite detention for some migrants who must wait months or years for their cases to be heard. The American Civil Liberties Union said they will challenge the move in court.

North Carolina governor vetoes 'born alive' abortion bill

By Jason Hanna, CNN

(CNN)North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper on Thursday vetoed a bill that would have required doctors to try to preserve the life of any infant born alive during an attempted abortion.

The state's Republican-controlled Legislature had passed the bill, called the "Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Act," this week.

In a letter announcing his veto, Cooper, a Democrat, wrote that laws "already protect newborn babies, and this bill is an unnecessary interference between doctors and their parents."

"This needless legislation would criminalize doctors and other healthcare providers for a practice that simply does not exist," Cooper wrote.

Under the proposed law, if an infant were born alive during an abortion attempt against it, any health care practitioner there would be required to "exercise the same degree of professional skill, care and diligence to preserve the life and health of the child as a reasonable diligent and conscientious health care practitioner would render to any other child born alive at the same gestational age."

A health care practitioner who does not do that would be guilty of a class D felony. Additionally, anyone who intentionally "performs an overt act" that kills the child would be guilty of murder, the proposal says.

Most of the bill's supporters in the Legislature were Republicans, though it attracted affirmative votes from a few Democrat lawmakers.

Two of the bill's primary sponsors, Sen. Joyce Kawiec and Rep. Pat McElraft, said in a joint statement Thursday that "caring for a living, breathing newborn infant is too restrictive for Gov. Cooper's radical abortion agenda," according to CNN affiliate WRAL.

"We thought Democrats would agree that children born alive should be separate from the abortion debate, but it's clear that they want the 'right to choose' to even extend past birth," the two Republican lawmakers said. "This is a sad day for North Carolina."

The state Senate passed the bill Monday with a 28-19 vote, with three senators absent. Two Democrat senators voted for it.

The House passed it Tuesday with a vote of 65-46, with nine lawmakers absent or not voting. Four Democrat representatives voted yes.

To override Cooper's veto, legislators would need the approval of three-fifths of each chamber.

Notable: Moar college bribery scandal fallout

Olivia Jade Giannulli Could Be Implicated in College Scam, Analyst Says

Social media influencer Olivia Jade Giannulli, the daughter of “Full House” actress Lori Loughlin, might be complicit in the college bribery scam. According to Fox News, she was copied in an email that her mother sent to William “Rick” Singer, the main actor in the scam, on “how to proceed” in filling out Oliva Jade’s college applications after her “provisional acceptance as a recruited [crew] athlete.” Federal officials have said that Loughlin and her husband paid $500,000 to get Oliva Jade and her sister, Isabella, into the University of Southern California as crew recruits when they weren’t involved in the sport. A former federal prosecutor told Fox that prosecutors might be able to charge Olivia Jade, 19, if Loughlin and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli, do not admit their guilt. They pleaded not guilty earlier this month.

“The government has a ton of evidence here – they have incredible leverage over Loughlin and her husband and the daughters,” former federal prosecutor Naema Rahmani told the news outlet. “And they have this leverage for a few reasons. If you review the evidence, it’s incredibly strong in terms of recorded phone calls, in terms of emails, financial records and so forth.” “There really could have only been two things – and it’s all the government has to prove,” Rahmani continued. “One is that they agreed to commit an unlawful act, and two is if they committed one overt act within the conspiracy. If you prove those two things, then the kids are on the hook as well. You can easily, easily argue that Olivia knew what was going on, she agreed to engage in this unlawful act by not filling out the application, by taking the picture – it can be an overt act to create liability for criminal liability.” Rahmani added that prosecutors wouldn’t have to prove whether Olivia Jade saw the email.

“There doesn’t have to be a smoking gun where she told someone either verbally or not that I knew I was doing this,” Rahmani said. “They can say there is circumstantial support that someone that is not an athlete, someone that doesn’t have the grades, someone that gets into USC and is supposedly participating in crew and having never rowed crew – they knew that they did not get in legitimately.”

Lara Yeretsian, another legal analyst, noted that Olivia Jade posed for a photo to be designated as a crew recruit, but said it may not be enough to implicate the student. “Posing for a picture is not sufficient to make Olivia Jade a co-conspirator in the College Admissions Scandal,” she told the broadcaster. “In other words, there is no evidence whatsoever in the affidavit to suggest that Olivia Jade was aware of any alleged conspiracy to funnel money to coaches or athletic directors at USC through Singer’s charitable organization. The prosecution does not have sufficient evidence here,” she added.

Olivia Jade is also reportedly terrified at the possibility of appearing in court and possibly testifying in court. A source close to Olivia Jade, who had amassed millions of followers on social media, and her 20-year-old sister were apparently aware that her parents allegedly spoke to a man who could help them get into the University of Southern California, reported Entertainment Tonight. The source didn’t say whether the man was Singer. The source said the two sisters, however, were not aware of the lengths that entailed getting them into the private university. “Olivia’s still mad at her parents,” said the source, who added that Oliva Jade is “terrified at the idea she may have to testify against them.”

Rahmani said that federal prosecutors may ensnare Olivia Jade in order to apply pressure on her parents. “These deals always get worse over time. Usually, the first deal is the best deal, and it’s just going to get worse after that. So, they put out a plea agreement allowing them to plead guilty to just the single count and the amount that they actually paid – Loughlin says no and guess what? They go to the grand jury, they get indicted for money laundering charges – now kids are getting involved,” Rahmani noted. “Desperate Housewives” actress Felicity Huffman and about a dozen other people have already pleaded guilty in the case, dubbed “Operation Varsity Blues.”

‘Now the Tables Have Turned:’ Trump Campaign Demands Origin of Mueller Probe Investigated

Shortly after Attorney General William Barr released the full redacted Mueller report on Thursday, April 18, Trump Campaign Manager Brad Parscale demanded an investigation of the “liars who instigated this sham investigation into President Trump.” “President Trump has been fully and completely exonerated yet again. Now the tables have turned, and it’s time to investigate the liars who instigated this sham investigation into President Trump, motivated by political retribution and based on no evidence whatsoever,” he said in a statement. “Now that the collusion and obstruction conspiracy theories have been exposed for the pathetic hoaxes they always were, the Obama-era DOJ and FBI must answer for their misdeeds and the scam that they perpetrated against the American people,” read the statement.

Earlier in the day, Barr re-affirmed that no member of the Trump campaign, or any other American, colluded with Russia to interfere with the 2016 elections. He made the remarks during a press conference before releasing the Mueller report to the congressional committees and the public. The Special Counsel “did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities,” Barr said, quoting the Mueller report. He also said that he and Deputy Attorney Rod Rosenstein determined there was no obstruction of justice case based on the information presented by Mueller.

Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman of Republican National Committee (RNC), also asked for the origin of the Mueller probe to be investigated. “It is now time to get to the bottom of how an investigation based off of fake and partisan information began in the first place. After two years and over $35 million, American taxpayers deserve answers and the integrity of our democratic process depends on ensuring this never happens again,” she stated.

Trump and his legal team declared victory after the Mueller report was released. “I’m having a good day, too, it’s called ‘no collusion, no obstruction,’” he said while addressing the Wounded Warrior Project Soldier Ride at the White House. “There never was by the way, and there never will be.” “This should never happen to another president again, this hoax, it should never happen to another president again,” he added.

Many Trump supporters also joined the rally on social media to declare victory. “Thank you to every Trump supporter who never gave up on him or doubted him. YOU are the champions today,” wrote Bill Mitchell, the host of a conservative talk radio show and one of the pundits on Trump, on Twitter.

‘Failure Among a Group of Leaders There’ During an April 10 hearing before the Senate Appropriations Committee, Barr said that spying on Trump Campaign in 2016 “did occur.” “I think spying did occur. Yes, I think spying did occur,” he confirmed when Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) asked if he suggested that spying occurred. He also said that he wants to pull everything together from the various investigations at the Capitol and the DOJ and see if there are any remaining questions to be addressed. “I haven’t set up a team yet. But I do have in mind having some colleagues to help me pull all this information together and let me know whether there’s some areas that should be looked at,” he stated. Barr clarified that he is not launching an investigation into the FBI, but he thought there was probably “a failure among a group of leaders there.”

U.S. Intelligence Institutionally Politicized Toward Democrats

John Gentry, who spent 12 years as a CIA analyst, criticized former senior intelligence leaders, including CIA Director John Brenan, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and former deputy CIA director Michael Morell, along with former analyst Paul Pillar, for breaking decades-long prohibitions of publicly airing their liberal political views in attacking Trump.

The institutional bias outlined in a lengthy article in the quarterly International Journal of Intelligence and Counterintelligence risks undermining the role of intelligence in support of government leaders charged with making policy decisions.

Gentry stopped short of saying the widespread liberal bias of intelligence officials has influenced intelligence reports and products. However, he concludes that "bias may have crept into CIA analyses."

"A considerable body of evidence, much of it fragmentary, indicates that many CIA people have left-leaning political preferences, but less evidence shows that political bias influences CIA analyses," Gentry concludes.

A politicized workforce.

Politicization during the Obama administration also was evident at the Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Agency, long criticized for its shortcomings in intelligence analysis and reporting on China's military. According to Gentry, under Obama, editors of the DIA's primary current intelligence report were notified to "avoid specifically identified terms that might trigger criticism of administration policy."

A threat to the republic.

Charles "Sam" Faddis, a former CIA operations officer, said countering politicization is a critical question. "A secret service that involves itself in partisan politics is a threat to the republic," Faddis said.

Nissan to slash global production by 15%

TOKYO – Nissan Motor will cut global production by about 15% for the fiscal year ending March 2020, Nikkei has learned, as the Japanese automaker shifts away from the aggressive expansion campaign promoted by former Chairman Carlos Ghosn.

The company aims to produce about 4.6 million units in fiscal 2019 – the lowest figure in nine years – according to plans being communicated to its suppliers. The move is expected to affect earnings, and could cast a pall over its alliance with French automaker Renault.

Under Ghosn, Nissan stretched itself thin in order to meet aggressive sales targets. Now it is seeking a different path forward, with President and CEO Hiroto Saikawa announcing last February a new strategy focused on profitability over sales volume. He pledged to overhaul the company's production and sales structures.

Nissan appears to have sustained sales and output declines in fiscal 2018 after almost a decade of growth, due to a sluggish performance in the U.S. The figures are expected to fall further this fiscal year, even as many of Nissan's rivals anticipate growth or at least in line with 2018, making Nissan's drop stand out.

The planned production cut would be the steepest since fiscal 2008, when output fell 16% in response to the global financial crisis. By region, the automaker plans to keep production in Japan largely flat at over 900,000 units, while slashing it overseas by 20% to about 3.7 million vehicles.

A significant hit to earnings could complicate Nissan's push to restructure its alliance with Renault. Currently, the French automaker owns 43% of Nissan, while Nissan has a non-voting 15% stake in Renault, despite accounting for nearly half of its partner's group net profit.

In North America, Nissan will scale back corporate sales operations that prop up unit sales but are less profitable. It will also reduce its sales incentive funds distributed to retail dealerships to finance discounts.

Barr: Mueller Probe Did Not Present Sufficient Evidence to Establish Obstruction-of-Justice Offense

Attorney General William Barr said on April 18 that special counsel Robert Mueller did not provide sufficient evidence to support an obstruction-of-justice case against President Donald Trump.

“After carefully reviewing the facts and legal theories outlined in the report, and in consultation with the Office of Legal Counsel and other department lawyers, the deputy attorney general and I concluded that the evidence developed by the special counsel is not sufficient to establish that the president committed an obstruction-of-justice offense,” Barr said at a press conference.

Mueller, in his report, had not reached a prosecutorial judgment on the allegation of obstruction of justice and instead left the decision to the attorney general.

Barr said that he and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein “disagreed with some of the special counsel’s legal theories,” but nevertheless “accepted the special counsel’s legal framework for purposes of our analysis and evaluated the evidence as presented by the special counsel in reaching our conclusion.”

In their report, the special counsel team presented 10 different episodes, which it then used to discuss potential legal theories for connecting the president’s actions to obstruction of justice.

The 10 episodes presented are wide ranging, from the circumstances of FBI Director James Comey’s firing, to the allegation that Trump asked White House legal counsel Don McGahn to request that the Justice Department fire Mueller.

Notable: US facial recognition will cover 97 percent of departing airline passengers within four years

US facial recognition will cover 97 percent of departing airline passengers within four years

Biometric Exit is already used at 15 US airports

The Department of Homeland Security says it expects to use facial recognition technology on 97 percent of departing passengers within the next four years. The system, which involves photographing passengers before they board their flight, first started rolling out in 2017, and was operational in 15 US airports as of the end of 2018.

The facial recognition system works by photographing passengers at their departure gate. It then cross-references this photograph against a library populated with facesimages from visa and passport applications, as well as those taken by border agents when foreigners enter the country.

The aim of the system is to offer “Biometric Exit,” which gives authorities as good an idea of who’s leaving the country as who’s entering it, and allows them to identify people who have overstayed their visas. Quartz notes that US authorities have traditionally relied on airline flight manifests to track who’s leaving the country.

Since the introduction of the current system, facial recognition identified 7,000 passengers who overstayed their visas on the 15,000 flights tracked. The US Customers and Border Protection (CBP) estimates that over 600,000 people overstay their visas every year, an offense that carries a maximum penalty of a 10-year ban from entering the US.

Critics argue that building up a database of millions of people’s photographs is a threat to civil liberties. Once you have the database, it would be easy to share it with other agencies, effectively turning it into a search tool for all law enforcement.

The current iteration of the system first entered trials in 2017 on a single flight between Atlanta and Tokyo. It was originally planned to roll out more widely at the beginning of 2018, but its implementation was fast-tracked by the Trump administration and was expanded to more airports in the summer of 2017.

Venezuela skirts U.S. sanctions by funneling oil sales via Russia

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - President Nicolas Maduro is funneling cashflow from Venezuelan oil sales through Russian state energy giant Rosneft as he seeks to evade U.S. sanctions designed to oust him from power, according to sources and documents reviewed by Reuters.

The sales are the latest sign of the growing dependence of Venezuela’s cash-strapped government on Russia as the United States tightens a financial noose around Maduro, who it describes as a dictator.

With its economy reeling from years of recession and a sharp decline in oil production, Venezuela was already struggling to finance imports and government spending before Washington imposed tough restrictions on state oil company PDVSA in January.

Oil accounts for more than 90 percent of exports from the OPEC nation and the lion’s share of government revenues. Maduro has accused U.S. President Donald Trump of waging economic war against Venezuela.

Since January, Maduro’s administration has been in talks with allies in Moscow about ways to circumvent a ban on clients paying PDVSA in dollars, the sources said. Russia has publicly said the U.S. sanctions are illegal and it would work with Venezuela to weather them.

Under the scheme uncovered by Reuters, Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA has started passing invoices from its oil sales to Rosneft.

The Russian energy giant pays PDVSA immediately at a discount to the sale price – avoiding the usual 30-to-90 day timeframe for completing oil transactions – and collects the full amount later from the buyer, according to the documents and sources.

Major energy companies such as India’s Reliance Industries Ltd - PDVSA’s largest cash-paying client - have been asked to participate in the scheme by paying Rosneft for Venezuelan oil, the documents show.

Rosneft, which has heavily invested in Venezuela under President Vladimir Putin, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Venezuela’s oil ministry, its information ministry - which handles media for the government - and PDVSA did not respond to questions.

Russia has loaned Venezuela almost $16 billion since 2006, which is being repaid in oil shipments, and has also taken significant stakes in petroleum projects, meaning it already controls a large slice of the South American country’s production.

Looks like they're sellin'

Here’s who’s thinking about buying one of the Port of Long Beach’s busiest, most coveted terminals

The sale of one of the busiest container terminals at the Port of Long Beach – and in all of North America – has drawn interest from two large firms based in New York and two international investment groups.

Last month, it was announced that COSCO – Chinese owner of the Long Beach Container Terminal – had plans to sell the massive terminal in a process that would start in December. On Tuesday, Dec. 11, people familiar with the matter – who asked not to be identified because the information is private – told Bloomberg News that investment firms Blackstone Group LP and KKR & Co. are potential buyers.

Additionally, Sweden-based equity group EQT Partners and an arm of Macquarie Group Ltd., an investment banking group based in Australia, have also been studying a deal for the asset, the people said. The facility is valued at $1 billion or more, depending on the structure of a deal, the people said.

The nearly 200-acre facility imports a wide variety of goods — such as appliances and other electronics, garments, and furniture — from China, Taiwan and other Asian countries. Five unions have employees there, from longshoremen to clerks; and along with its sister terminal in Taiwan, it sees about 2.7 million containers go through it each year. So it represents significant economic output.

Report: 26 States Now Ban or Restrict Community Broadband

Many of the laws restricting local voters’ rights were directly written by a telecom sector terrified of real broadband competition.

A new report has found that 26 states now either restrict or outright prohibit towns and cities from building their own broadband networks. Quite often the laws are directly written by the telecom sector, and in some instances ban towns and cities from building their own broadband networks—even if the local ISP refuses to provide service.

The full report by BroadbandNow, a consumer-focused company that tracks US broadband availability, indicates the total number of state restrictions on community broadband has jumped from 20 such restrictions since the group’s last report in 2018.

Frustrated by slow speeds, limited availability, high prices and terrible customer service, more than 750 communities across the country have built their own broadband ISPs or cooperatives. Studies have shown these locally owned and operated networks tend to offer lower prices, faster speeds, and better customer service than their private-sector counterparts.

Instead of competing by offering better service—private sector telecom giants like Comcast and AT&T have routinely turned to a cheaper alternative: easily corrupted state lawmakers. In exchange for campaign contributions, lawmakers frequently and uncritically pass on model legislation written by industry and distributed by organizations like ALEC.

Often the restrictions are buried in other, unrelated legislation to try and avoid public scrutiny. For example in 2016, AT&T lobbyists attempted to include community broadband restrictions in a bill intended to address regional traffic issues.

BroadbandNow’s report looks at each state’s restrictions individually, and found that while some states simply banned community broadband outright (a notable assault on voters’ democratic rights), others impose clever but onerous restrictions on precisely how a local network can be funded, who they can partner with, or how quickly (and where) they’re allowed to grow.

Axelrod: Mueller Report ‘Virtually Inviting an Impeachment Probe’ from Congress

"The report provides a conundrum for Congress by virtually inviting an impeachment probe around the obstruction issue."

Democratic operative David Axelrod, who is best known for serving as chief strategist for Barack Obama’s presidential campaigns, said Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s redacted final report virtually invites “an impeachment probe” for President Trump on Thursday.

Attorney General William Barr released a redacted version of Mueller’s final report regarding whether there was collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 election. While Mueller’s final report found no evidence of collusion, there is still the question of whether Trump attempted to obstruct justice. “The report provides a conundrum for Congress by virtually inviting an impeachment probe around the obstruction issue,” Axelrod tweeted.

Nunes Statement on Mueller Report

The Mueller report ignored a wide range of abuses committed during the FBI’s investigation of the Trump campaign. And now, with the revelation that the Special Counsel was authorized at the outset to investigate Carter Page for allegedly colluding with Russians to hack the election, it’s clear that false allegations from the Steele dossier played a major role not only in the FISA warrant application on Page, but in the appointment of the Special Counsel as well.

The biggest takeaway from the entire Russia hoax is that our nation’s counter-intelligence capabilities should never again be abused to target an administration’s political opponents. Those who colluded in this effort – the media, Fusion GPS, Democratic Party leaders in Congress, the Clinton campaign, and partisan intelligence leaders – should apologize to the innocent people they maligned and to the American people they deceived.

Canada extends deadline for Trans Mountain pipeline decision to June 18

CALGARY, Alberta (Reuters) - Canada has extended the deadline for a decision on whether to push forward with the expansion of the Trans Mountain oil pipeline to June 18 from mid-May, the government said on Thursday.

The Trans Mountain expansion (TMX) project would nearly triple the amount of crude flowing from Alberta’s oil sands to British Columbia’s coast, but has been beset by regulatory delays and opposition from indigenous groups, environmentalists and the government of British Columbia.

Amarjeet Sohi, Canada’s minister of natural resources, said the delay would give the federal Liberal government more time to consult with indigenous groups impacted by the pipeline.

“The Government has consistently said that a decision would only be made on the project once we are satisfied that the duty to consult has been met,” he said.

However, Conservative shadow minister for natural resource Shannon Stubbs said the delay meant another summer construction season would likely be missed.

“There is also still a very real risk that the Liberals will cancel this project for political reasons,” she said in a statement.

Last August, the Canadian government bought the pipeline from Kinder Morgan Canada for C$4.5 billion ($3.37 billion) to ensure it gets built.

That came after Canada’s Federal Court of Appeal overturned the Liberal government’s 2016 approval to expand the pipeline. The court ruled Canada’s National Energy Board (NEB) regulator had not considered marine impacts and the government had not adequately consulted indigenous groups.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government ordered a new NEB review of Trans Mountain last September, and in February the regulator recommended the government approve it a second time.

The NEB also made new recommendations to mitigate harm to Pacific Ocean killer whales, which environmentalists warn will face disruption from increased oil tanker traffic.

Alberta’s Premier-designate Jason Kenney, who won a landslide election victory in the oil-rich province on Tuesday, said he had spoken with Trudeau about the delay.

“I agree with the Prime Minister that they need to make sure they cross every ‘t’ and dot every ‘i’ when it comes to discharging the federal government’s duty to consult,” Kenney told a news conference. “We certainly do not want them to go back to the drawing board a third time on this.”

RBC Capital Markets analyst Michael Tran said the short delay to the decision would not materially impact the energy sector.

“The government is taking its time to make sure the right decision is made and it’s communicated the right way to the masses,” Tran said.

Trudeau’s Liberals face a federal election later this year in which the environment and pipelines will be major issues.

Sears Sues Ex-CEO Lampert, Steven Mnuchin For Looting The Company

Sears, or rather the company that formerly owned Sears and Kmart, has sued its ex-CEO, chairman and iconic investor Eddie Lampert and his hedge fund alleging they illegally stripped the retailer of assets in the years leading up to its Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The lawsuit accuses Lampert that while he headed the recently bankrupt company, he directed the transfer of billions of dollars in assets "for grossly inadequate consideration or no consideration at all" for the benefit of himself, his hedge fund ESL Investments and others, Reuters reported. In other words, Lampert allegedly "asset stripped" Sears of most of its attractive assets and personally benefited from the transfers.

The lawsuit, filed by Sears Holdings, targets about two dozen defendants, including Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, who was previously an investor and board member of ESL and has been friends with Lampert for decades.

Sears Holdings - a bankrupt zombie company in every sense of the word - of which Lampert was formerly CEO, chairman and the largest investor, alleged that Lampert's moves "were unmistakably intended to hinder, delay and defraud creditors and/or occurred when the Company was insolvent and had insufficient capital to continue its operations and to repay its billions of dollars in debt."

Had Lampert been prevented to syphon off assets, "Sears would have had billions of dollars more to pay its third-party creditors today and would not have endured the amount of disruption, expense and job losses resulting from its recent bankruptcy filing," the lawsuit continue, and also alleges that Lampert "knew the Company had no plan to return to profitability" and worked "to create a false record to cover up their asset stripping, at Lampert’s personal direction," including "bad-faith predictions" of a "dramatic turn-around."

Two months ago, Lampert struck a last-minute deal to buy Sears assets out of bankruptcy, avoid a liquidation that would leave tens of thousands without a job, and keep about 400 stores open under a new entity called Transform Holdco.

However, as part of the deal, Sears Holdings, which sold assets Lampert, is still dealing with angry creditors who say that Lampert exploited them and profited from the retailer's descent.

ESL countered, saying in a statement that it "vigorously disputes" the lawsuit, calling them "baseless allegations and fanciful claims" that "are misleading or just flat wrong." According to the hedge fund, under Lampert's leadership, Sears used more than $2 billion in proceeds from asset sales to reduce the retailer's debt and fund its operations. The hedge fund said it did not receive favorable treatment, adding that the Sears board and independent directors authorized the deals in question.

"We are confident that the processes we followed for each of these transactions are unimpeachable," ESL said.

It was not immediately clear whether the lawsuit could disrupt the operations, or what's left of them, of the so-called New Sears.

Lampert came under fire over the past several years for his leadership, such a 2015 decision to sell certain valuable stores to a real estate investment trust called Seritage Growth Properties, where he had a significant ownership stake. Seritage is also targeted in the lawsuit. Lampert also faced scrutiny for loading Sears up with debt from his hedge fund.

Last June, USA Today reported that Lampert and ESL were collecting at least $200 million annually in debt payments from Sears and that Lampert had personally directed the company not to reinvest in major store upgrades.

Ahead of its October 2018 bankruptcy, Sears closed more than 3,500 stores and cut about 250,000 jobs in roughly the last 15 years as sales cratered.

1. Her highest contributor in 2018 was Emily's List, a pro-choice PAC founded by Ellen Malcolm (no relation to Ian), clocking in at $10,485. End Citizen's United (*insert "ironic" Palpatine here*) came in as her second highest supporter, with $10,040. You can't make this stuff up.

1b. Interesting to note, is that #abortion doesn't seem to be expressly prohibited by #islam. PLEASE NOTE: This was a cursory search to establish the canonical and historical precedent to determine whether or not an Islamic candidate/person could take money from a pro-choice organization, or if it was prohibited. As of now, my conclusion is that it is not prohibited and thus Omar could receive the contributions.

2. The connect from #ilhanomar to #cair was ridiculously easy, they're number 22 on her 2018 donor list, coming in at a cool $5,000.

4. Other interesting players besides #cair are highlighted in yellow. I've seen "Antidote Films" pop up quite a few times in my other digs, so I decided to add a sidebar into their financial donations to candidates in 2018 and the 2016 presidential eleciton (supported HRC with at least $789). Note how many "new democrat" types they support - two of them now presidential candidates for 2020. 

5. Finally, circling back to Emily's list, I opened up Ellen Malcom's contributions. I established her identity as THE Ellen Malcom of #emilyslist by cross-referencing whenever the zip codes intersected with her occupation listed as "Emily's list". Thankfully, she was kind enough to establish both of the pictured DC addresses along with the Peabody, MA one.

1800 Migrants Illegally Enter El Paso Sector in One Day

El Paso Sector Border Patrol agents apprehended more than 1,800 migrants who illegally crossed the border Tuesday. More than half crossed into the El Paso Metropolitan Area.

Lordsburg Station agents patrolling near the remote Antelope Wells Port of Entry in the New Mexico boot heel region encountered a group of 230 shortly before 1 a.m. on April 16, according to El Paso Sector Border Patrol officials. The agents began the long task of medically screening, processing, and transporting the migrants to the station.

About five minutes after the apprehension of the first group, another set of agents encountered a group of 360 migrants just west of Mount Cristo Rey in Sunland Park, New Mexico, officials reported.

The agents working in the Antelope Wells Port of Entry area encountered yet another large group of 130 migrants at about 11:45 p.m. to close out their day.

In total, the El Paso Sector agents apprehended a total of more than 1,800 migrants on Tuesday — at least half entering in the El Paso Metropolitan area, officials stated.

During the first six months of Fiscal Year 2018, El Paso Sector agents apprehended less than 11,000 migrants who illegally crossed the border from Mexico. So far this fiscal year, that number has skyrocketed to more than 71,000.

“It is very clear that the cartels and their smugglers know the weaknesses in our laws,” Acting Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan said during a visit to the Texas border this week. “They know that family units and unaccompanied children will be released with no consequences for their illegal entry”

During a press briefing earlier this month, U.S. Border Patrol Chief Law Enforcement Operations Director Brian Hastings expressed concern about the cartel tactic of crossing large groups of migrants in remote areas, Breitbart News reported.

“The resources that we’re pulling away from national security have a negative effect on law enforcement mission,” the operations director explained. “Currently each day we’re pulling approximately 40 percent of our agents on the Southwest border, and diverting them specifically for the humanitarian need, that is to care for, transport and process family units and UACs.”

Report: National Enquirer Sold to Hudson News CEO for $100 Million

The National Enquirer is being sold for $100 million to Hudson News CEO James Cohen, the Washington Post reported Thursday. The development comes after the National Enquirer’s parent company, American Media Inc, announced it was evaluating “strategic options” for the supermarket tabloid. The media company also said it was looking options for its Globe and the National Examiner properties.

The sale comes after the Enquirer bought revealing messages between Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and his then-secret girlfriend for $200,000 from her brother, the Wall Street Journal reported. The gossip outlet accessed the text messages, and in January reported that Bezos had an extramarital affair with former news anchor and entertainment reporter Lauren Sanchez — a leak that led to his divorce. In February, Bezos accused the tabloid’s publisher, led by David Pecker, of trying to blackmail him over lurid photos. Neither National Enquirer nor Hudson News have commented on reports of the sale.

EXCLUSIVE: Google Leftists Panic About Leaks, Threaten Employment of Colleagues

Left-wing employees at Google are threatening the employment of their colleagues amid a panic about frequent leaks revealing political bias in the company’s products and working atmosphere. Leaked internal discussion threads from Google provided exclusively to Breitbart News show left-wing Google employees reporting one of their colleagues for alleged “leaks,” while worrying about the legal implications of cracking down on a conservative at the company over his public complaints about working conditions.

The discussion took place last week on the “transparency and ethics” discussion group, from which the alleged leaker had recently been ejected – a failed attempt to stem the tide of leaks showing political bias at the tech giant. Announcing the ejection of the alleged leaker, a Google employee wrote that vigilance about leaks was “especially important in light of the recent leaks that named our friends and colleagues in Breitbart and the Daily Caller.” “If you have any knowledge of someone else who definitely leaked from THIS group, be sure to report it at go/stop-leaks,” wrote another Google software developer, referring to an internal messaging system for reporting. “I noticed a certain someone who leaked from this group still works here. Is that the new norm? Is there something specific that makes his leak okay? What’s up with all this” wrote a different employee. potential leaks. Another Google software engineer said that it would set “an incredibly bad precedent if he is not terminated in light of acknowledging responsibility for the leak.”

The “leak” in question was a Medium post by conservative Google software engineer Mike Wacker. In the post, the employee published anonymized messages from inside the company to draw attention to hostile working conditions faced by employees who express non-leftwing opinions at Google. Leftists at Google are now also blaming Wacker for the leak of messages from the transparency and ethics discussion group about Kay Coles James, the conservative voice on Google’s now-canceled AI advisory council. In the messages, Google employee accused the African-American grandmother and president of the Heritage Foundation of being a “vocal bigot” who supported “exterminationist views.”

Some Google employees urged caution, noting that there was no evidence that Wacker leaked the discussion, and that persecuting him for his Medium post might have legal implications. “The odds of them showing up in, for example, a lawsuit for discrimination, or unfair dismissal, are high” said one employee, who warned against empowering “far-right extremists”. “They serve the propaganda purpose of establishing further that Google is discriminatory against ‘conservative’ voices (ie: the far-right extremists, and the people perfectly happy to work with them if they don’t directly agree such as any republican voter) and that ‘leftists’ as a whole are a mob persecuting anyone they imagine might be an ‘enemy’ without regard of the facts.” “it occurred to me … that some amount of his conversation might be considered protected speech given that it’s talking about working conditions” wrote another employee.

Under the National Labor Relations Act, workers can engage in public discussion of working conditions at their places of employment. In recent cases, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has upheld the right of employees to hold these discussions on social media platforms. James Damore, who was fired from Google after publishing an internal memo advocating for viewpoint diversity which was subsequently leaked to the press by his opponents inside the company, brought a case before the NLRB after his dismissal. The NLRB, lobbied by Google, ruled in favor of firing Damore for so-called “discriminatory statements,” but also said that much of the rest of his memo, which discussed working conditions at Google, was protected by labor law.

Nevertheless, a Google employee insisted that the company’s leadership was “looking into” what to do with Wacker, but warned that even though the purported leaker had been ejected from the group, members should still be cautious about further leaks. “The same email list which leaked recently is probably not the appropriate forum in which to be discussing the matter of what is being done about the leakers.” Breitbart News has reached out to Google for comment.

Mueller Report: Leftists, Never-Trumpers Claim ‘Pee Tape’ Is Real Based on Misleading Screenshot

Several leftists and anti-Trumpers on Thursday cited a misleading screenshot of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report to affirm the existence of the alleged “pee-pee” blackmail tape from the unverified dossier authored by former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele. The purported comprising footage is said to show President Trump watching two prostitutes pee on a bed inside the presidential suite at Moscow’s Ritz-Carlton Hotel in 2013. The alleged incident is believed to have occurred during a visit to Russia to attend the Miss Universe pageant. According to a footnote in Mueller’s report, longtime Trump lawyer Michael Cohen was sent a text message from Russian businessman Giorgi Rtskhiladze in October 2016, saying: “Stopped flow of tapes from Russia but not sure if there’s anything else. Just so you know…” The footnote continues on the next page, where Mueller’s report then concedes that Rtskhiladze told investigators that any alleged tapes were fake, to his knowledge.

Although the report cites Rtskhiladze calling the alleged footage “fake,” this did not stop journalists, pundits, and other verified media figures from deceptively sharing only the first part of the report’s except. Those who shared the misleading passage include MSNBC producer Kyle Griffin, Ellen producer Andy Lassner, Daily Beast contributor Rick Wilson, and former Hillary Clinton staffer Zac Petkanas. Bloomberg’s live blog of the Mueller report’s release fails to include the part in which the tapes are referred to as “fake.”

The Justice Department on Thursday released the long-awaited report by Mueller, which specifies the two-year investigation and details that the team found no evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia before the 2016 election. The report, in total, is 448 pages long. It describes in detail how the Russian GRU intelligence unit hacked campaign emails of Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, which were subsequently leaked by WikiLeaks. It also specifies there were some links between Russia and the Trump campaign.

Attorney General William Barr previewed the report immediately before its release, emphasizing there was no cooperation. Echoing the summary he gave last month, Barr said the investigation found the Russian Internet Research Agency spread disinformation on social media “designed to provoke and amplify political and social discord in the United States.” Barr released the report to high-ranking members of Congress and then the public. Further, he said no Americans colluded with Russians to sway the election. On the issue of whether President Trump obstructed justice in any way, the report said it couldn’t clear him. It identifies 10 episodes where the president possibly could have obstructed justice. In response to the report, President Trump tweeted a meme that said, “Game Over,” in a style from the HBO drama Game of Thrones.

Mueller Report Directly Contradicts Bombshell BuzzFeed Story

Special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on the Russia investigation directly contradicts an explosive BuzzFeed story that claimed Mueller had evidence President Donald Trump directed Michael Cohen, his former attorney, to lie to Congress about a potential Moscow real estate deal. The Jan. 18 BuzzFeed story claimed that Cohen “told the special counsel that after the election, the president personally instructed him to lie — by claiming that negotiations ended months earlier than they actually did — in order to obscure Trump’s involvement.” The story claimed that Mueller’s office “learned about Trump’s directive for Cohen to lie to Congress through interviews with multiple witnesses from the Trump Organization and internal company emails, text messages, and a cache of other documents. Cohen then acknowledged those instructions during his interviews with that office.” BuzzFeed touted its story as “the first known example of Trump explicitly telling a subordinate to lie directly about his own dealings with Russia.”

But Mueller’s report states that “Cohen said that he and the President did not explicitly discuss whether Cohen’s testimony about the Trump Tower Moscow project would be or was false, and the President did not direct him to provide false testimony. Cohen also said he did not tell the President about the specifics of his planned testimony.” The special counsel’s report concluded that while there is evidence “that the President knew Cohen provided false testimony to Congress about the Trump Tower Moscow project, the evidence available to us does not establish that the President directed or aided Cohen’s false testimony.” BuzzFeed spokesman Matt Mittenthal declined to comment in an email to The Daily Caller News Foundation.

The special counsel’s office disputed BuzzFeed’s story shortly after it was published, but the news outlet stood by the article. “BuzzFeed’s description of specific statements to the Special Counsel’s Office, and characterization of documents and testimony obtained by this office, regarding Michael Cohen’s Congressional testimony are not accurate,” Mueller spokesman Peter Carr said at the time. Anthony Cormier, one of two reporters on the story, told CNN two days later that BuzzFeed remained “100 percent behind” its reporting. “I have further confirmation that this is right. We are being told to stand our ground. Our reporting is going to be borne out to be accurate, and we’re 100 percent behind it,” Cornier said on CNN’s “Reliable Sources.” “The same sources that we used in the story are standing behind it, and so are we,” Cornier said at the time.

NZ ex-official guilty of hiding camera in embassy toilet

New Zealand's former top military official in the US has been found guilty of planting a secret camera in a unisex bathroom at the country's embassy in Washington DC.

Alfred Keating faces up to 18 months in prison for attempting to make an intimate visual recording.

Keating's DNA matched traces found on the SD card in the camera, which appeared to have been in place for many months.

He will be sentenced on 25 June.

Taped under the radiator

Formerly in the Royal New Zealand Navy, Keating was the highest ranking official at New Zealand's US embassy when the camera was discovered in 2017.

Because he was a foreign official, New Zealand was responsible for Mr Keating's trial, despite the offence taking place in the US.

In April, Auckland District Court heard that the camera had been hidden in a heating duct, and was found by an embassy worker when it fell onto the floor.

The man initially thought it was a memory drive, but then noticed a tiny camera lens and the brand of the camera, BrickHouse Security.

Investigations of Keating's laptop showed he had accessed the website of BrickHouse security, a company which sells hidden video cameras.

A homemade mount was also found taped under the radiator, covered in a layer of dust, suggesting the camera had been in place for some time.

The camera was sent back to New Zealand for investigation by police, who found over 700 deleted files and 20 existing files on the memory card.

They found 19 images of people using the bathroom over a period of five hours.

Keating had pleaded not guilty to the charges. He also sought to have his name suppressed, arguing that revealing his identity would cause his family "extreme hardship". The request was dismissed.

France insurance firm AXA divests from Israel arms manufacturer

A French insurance firm has divested from Elbit Systems and several Israeli banks following pressure from the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement and a number of international NGOs.

AXA – a French multinational firm specialising in insurance and financial services – has agreed to partially divest from Elbit Systems, an arms manufacturer which has supplied the Israeli army with weapons to be used against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and besieged Gaza Strip.

AXA has also agreed to divest from five major Israeli banks – Bank Hapoalim, Bank Leumi, Bank Mizrahi-Tefahot, First International Bank of Israel and Israel Discount Bank – which often provide loans to the Israeli arms industry and operate in Israel’s illegal West Bank settlements.

The move came after a several-year-long campaign by two NGOs, “SumOfUs” and “Stop Assistance to Israeli Apartheid”, which called on the insurance giant to reassess its investments and complicity in the Israeli occupation.

In April 2018, SumOfUs – an international NGO that seeks to counter the power of big businesses – launched an international petition to support Stop Assistance to Israeli Apartheid’s campaign. The petition garnered more than 140,000 signatures, causing AXA to “quietly reduce” its investments in Elbit Systems and Israeli banks this year.

Report: White House Wants Investigation Into Hillary Clinton’s Emails

The White House criticized the “breathless” media coverage of the Russia collusion “hoax” following the submission of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report to Congress, adding that reporters should focus on Obama administration scandals, it was reported.

“While the establishment media has breathlessly covered this partisan witch hunt for nearly two years, they refuse to cover the real scandals that plagued the previous Democrat administration,” a White House official told the Washington Examiner on April 18.

The official made a reference to the email scandal that has plagued former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and the administration noted in the Examiner’s report that former President Barack Obama described the scandal as a “mistake” but wasn’t “a national security problem.” He made the remarks on CBS News’ “60 Minutes” in 2015.

Splinternet: EU Censorship Ramps Up With ACTA 2, While UK Passes Terror Law, Porn Law, and Introduces First Internet Regulation Agency

Across Europe, MEPs voted successfully to redesign the Internet with a censorship directive disguised as a copyright proposal, while the UK itself passed a horrifying terror bill that will make it illegal to watch any “terrorist propaganda” (not clearly defined) which carries sentencing of 15 years, an age restriction porn law and introduced the world’s first Internet regulation safety agency.

ACTA 2

ACTA 2 which required all the dirty tricks in the book to pass the initial vote, has now passed in a vote of 22 countries in favor of the law.

Only six countries — Italy, Sweden, Poland, Finland, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg — voted against the proposed directive that will change the Internet as we know it.

This means that EU member countries have two years to comply by drafting their own national laws. This is sure to spur protests and legal battles all over Europe for the next few years.

The directive was passed despite more than 5.2 million people who signed an online petition calling to save the Internet and abandon the legalese.

Throughout the voting process, there were numerous tricks by EPP Group and other political parties involved in the copyright directive, or ACTA 2, such as attempting to change the voting date, intimidating politicians by threatening them with bad press, and even changing the article numbers prior to the vote.

New York Times Accidentally Unravels UK Government's Official Skripal Narrative

While London almost immediately blamed Moscow for being behind the poisoning of ex-Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter in the UK city of Salisbury in March 2018, Russia has strongly rejected its involvement, stressing it's been denied access both to the investigation into the incident and the Russian nationals affected.

On 16th April, the New York Times published a glowing profile of Gina Haspel, who in May 2018 became the seventh director of the Central Intelligence Agency.

The article referred to Haspel — the former head of a CIA 'black site' in Thailand at which an indeterminate number of suspected terrorists were viciously tortured — as an "adept tactician" blessed with "good listening, empathy and an ability to connect", and discussed the difficulties the intelligence chief faced in ensuring "her voice is heard at the White House", due to the intransigence of President Donald Trump, whose administration treats national security professionals "with deep skepticism".

So far, so obsequious — but buried in the hagiography is a fascinating disclosure. In a section titled ‘The keys to talking to Trump? Realism and emotion', authors Julian E. Barnes and Adam Goldman document how Haspel "solidified her reputation" as one of the "most skilled briefers" of the President.

Following the 4th March 2018 poisoning of former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia in Salisbury, UK, top national security officials are said to have gathered inside the White House to discuss with Trump how Washington should respond — at the time, Whitehall was preparing to expel dozens of Russian diplomats from the UK, and aggressively pushing various key international allies to follow suit.

The National Enquirer is being sold for $100 million to James Cohen, CEO of Hudson News

The supermarket tabloid, along with two sister publications, will be purchased by the head of the travel retailer known for its airport newsstands, according to people familiar with the agreement.

The decision to sell came after the hedge fund manager whose firm controls the tabloid’s parent company, American Media, became disillusioned with the reporting tactics it practiced. American Media has been under intense pressure because of the Enquirer’s efforts to tilt the 2016 presidential election in favor of Donald Trump, who is a longtime friend of American Media’s CEO, David Pecker.

Austria warns of new massive migration wave to Europe this spring

Austrian Interior Minister Herbert Kickl recently sent a letter to the EU commission, warning of a renewed migrant crisis and calling for immediate preventative measures to be taken.

He cited that a huge number of migrants from Turkey will be heading to Europe once the weather improves.

Kickl stated in the letter that a there is an imminent crisis as he believes plans are ongoing for a large-scale migration from Turkey to Europe.

Based on the data released by the European Police Authority Europol, tens of thousands of migrants are already in the region, including 60,000 in Greece, another 5,000 in Bosnia-Herzegovina and another 5,000 in Serbia.

Furthermore, there will be another 5.6 million Syrian refugees in the Middle East, which validates the looming threat of a new massive migration movement.

Kickl urged the commission to act quickly and send a clear message to the migrants to stop mass migration:

“It is particularly important now to find out what initiatives and measures are being planned by the European Commission in order to be able to coordinate the respective contingency plans for a new mass influx.”

Kicks suggested that the commission immediately work on “effective return systems”, “information campaigns and local capacity building”, for which there must be “much more” financial support from the EU:

“Refugees have a right to life in safety and dignity – but no right to freely choose their destination country. Only a Europe that protects its borders can help those who really need protection.”

Kickl reminded the EU not to forget its history with massive migration: “We all still remember the images of the mass immigration of 2015/2016. It would be irresponsible to twiddle one’s thumb and wait until tens of thousands of migrants are on the border.”

“A political repair-and-patchwork mentality does not bring us anywhere in the EU – only a clear, proactive strategic approach. It’s about averting a new crisis rather than waiting for it to erupt.”

This happened last June, but saw it in the news again today. Suicide of Sophie Gradon and her boyfriend a few days later. Posted because it has patterns that are commonly observed in other "suicides" and other "murder-suicides" that raise questions. It was a hanging, but no mention of a red scarf or the like.

The inquest heard she was found hanging in the living room of her parents' home by Mr Armstrong and his brother. [anon has observed the person who knows the "suicide" victim ALWAYS takes a witness when they go to check in on them].

Mr Armstrong attempted CPR for 15 minutes but quickly realised she was dead.

He had become concerned after not receiving any messages from his girlfriend during the day.

Mr Armstrong had been in a relationship with the former beauty queen since May 2018 after meeting her on a night out in Newcastle.

He killed himself 5 days after her funeral.

[this was after they had been dating for only 1 month]

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-tyne-47933722

Also, some family and friends don't think it was a suicide.

There had been rumours that she may have taken her own life, but some of her friends are convinced she would never have hurt herself.

Last week, Mirror Online exclusively revealed that the inquest into Sophie's death had been postponed after her grieving parents received new information.

Her mother Deborah later told Mail Online there was "nothing to support" the suicide theory and revealed police are trying to access data from the late star's iPhone.

Now Sophie's close friend Jasmine Lennard has expressed her own views on the tragedy, insisting she's also convinced Sophie didn't take her own life.
